    Default Calling on Guys Who've Had HST

    Guys,

    I had my HST of 1200 grafts back on September 2. I have a question for other guys who have had the procedure, regarding the rate of regrowth in the recipient area. For me, the hairs in the recipient area have done one of three things:
    1. Grew right away and are close to 2 cm long now
    2. Grew a little bit (0.25 to 1 cm) and have stopped and are not growing or falling out, they're just staying put. (this is the majority)
    3. Fell out (this is the minority)

    Is this normal? It's only been 6.5 weeks, so I'm hoping the hairs in items 2 and 3 above grow more. What did you guys experience?

    By my 3 months mark (which is the point when you'll have the worst result in my opinion) about 20% kept growing, 70% fell out and 10% stopped growing (and then fell out, not sure when it stopped growing, I think right from the start though).

    Did the ones that stopped growing regrow?

    For me, yes they did.

    I think the yield of hair which grows is at least 95% with HST and could well be 100%, so you don't need to worry about implanted hair not growing, even the ones that are not currently growing or have recently shed.

    Yup. After a while they'll just shed and then will regrow.
